CHECKSPOOLSIZE statement

Use the CHECKSPOOLSIZE statement to specify cause SMTP to check the size of JES spool file. If the JES spool file is larger than the primary allocation for the hlq.TEMP.NOTE data set, the resulting SMTP note is truncated. When the SMTP note is truncated, an informational message EZA5340I or EZA5342I is generated in the SMTP OUTPUT file.

The choice of which message is used depends on the format of the JES spool file (NETDATA or batch) being read. The truncated SMTP note also has the corresponding message appended to the bottom of the note. This enables the system administrator to correlate the SMTP note with the SMTP mailer doing the truncation and increase the MAXMAILBYTES if it is appropriate. The SMTP mailer continues to process mail. The default for this parameter is disabled.
